Nah I've had my eye out at the moment, also in the market, and seen a couple of nice example for around the £9k mark. Place called, IIRC, MRB has a load on autotrader for £9.7/9.8k at the moment, non silly high milers, looks like a reputable place as well. They also have a 210 for 8995 with 52k on, so they are out there, just gotta look. Or if you were willing to buy privately, I'm sure a 225 for 9k would be easy.
Saw a 105k miler up for 7,995 the other day as well heh. Must admit, it didn't look like a 105k mile car at all. I'm fortunate in that my budget is a little greater than these examples tho, so am taking my time and been super picky

Have you actally seen these cars in the metal though? I saw loads of R's when I was buying mine, they all "sound" great in the ads, until you get there and see them... And that was on 11k cars never mind 9k ones.
